Solar Collection of Evacuated Tubes in a Residential Electrical Power System

Since utility scale solar thermal is the most cost effective method of solar power production, this report seeks to scale the technology down to a residential level. Between parabolic troughs, flat plat solar collectors, and evacuated tubes, the most optimal solar collection tool for residential applications is evacuated tubes. With Isobutane as a working fluid, this ...
